About Lobby Week

How do you make a difference in the lives of women and famililes in your community? Use your voice to deliver your story to Capitol Hill during ACNM Virtual Lobby Week May 1-3. To gear up for International Day of the Midwife, midwives will be contacting their legislators all week to raise this collective refrain: Midwives are high quality, cost effective solutions to the health care workforce shortage!
